In a non-assembled configuration, the pocket comprises is defined by a first portion 6 exhibiting a first edge 8, and a second portion 7 exhibiting a second edge 9. A seam 10 realises an assembled configuration by the joining of the first portion 6 to the second portion 7, by the superposition of an edge 8 on the other one 9 and the nearing of an edge 8 to the other one 9 to give the pocket a curved three-dimensional conformation.
Said pocket 1 being obtained by a nearing step of the first portion 6 to the second portion 7 and a connecting step thereof.
Said pocket 1 being applied to trousers 14, such as to be superposed during use on a buttock of the person wearing the trousers.
Said pocket 1 being applied to a shirt 25, such as to be superposed during use on the breast of the person wearing the shirt.

Description

[0001] The invention concerns a pocket that can be applied on an article of clothing in a position which, when the article is worn by a person, is superposed on a projecting part of the body of the wearer, said projection being delimited by a curved three-dimensional surface.

[0002] The pocket of the invention is especially suitable for application on a rear portion of a pair of trousers such as to be superposed on a buttock of the person wearing the trousers, or on a front portion of a jacket, blouse or gilet such as to be superposed on a breast.

[0003] A further object of the present invention is a method for realising the pocket.

[0004] The invention further concerns an article of clothing on which the above-mentioned pocket is applied, especially a pair of trousers, a blouse or a jacket.

[0005] Among the most common types of trousers are jeans, which are especially favoured by both men and women because they are practical, wearable and fashionable.

[0006] Jeans of known type are provided with rear pockets, each of which is realised with a single piece of cloth which is sewn along the edge thereof to the underlying cloth. After being sewn on the jeans, the pocket therefore takes on a substantially flat conformation.

[0007] When the jeans are worn, notwithstanding the deformability of the cloth, the rear pocket - because of its flat conformation - cannot adapt perfectly to the curved surface of the buttock. This reduces the comfort of the user, who might feel a crushing of the buttock exerted by the pocket. Further, the rear pocket tends to flatten the buttock, with an effect that can be aesthetically unappealing.

[0008] Like defects occur with pockets made with a flat piece of cloth and applied on jackets or shirts at the breast position of the user.

[0009] An aim of the invention is to improve the pockets suitable for being applied on an article of clothing such as to be positioned, when the article is worn, on a curved surface that projects from the body of the user.

[0010] A further aim is to reduce the crushing action exerted on curved surfaces of the body of a user by a pocket applied on an article of clothing.

[0011] A still further aim of the invention is to increase the comfort of articles of clothing provided with pockets that are suitable for being positioned on a curved surface of the user's body.

[0012] A further aim is to provide a pocket for an article of clothing which, when positioned at a curved surface of the user's body, enhances the three-dimensional curvature of the surface, producing a pleasant aesthetic effect. Thanks to the invention, a pocket can be obtained which can adapt to a user's breast or buttock curvature on the article the pocket is applied on. This enables an increase in user comfort, as the article of clothing is highly wearable even at the pocket position, and the user feels no crushing sensation as is sometimes the case with flat pockets of known type. Further, the pocket of the invention enables emphasising the curves of the user's body, making the article of clothing to which the pocket is applied particularly appreciable from the aesthetic point of view.

[0013] The invention will be better understood and actuated with reference to the accompanying drawings, which illustrate some versions thereof by way of non-limiting examples, in which:

[0014] With reference to figures 1-6, 1 denotes in its entirety a pocket which is the object of the present invention.

[0015] With particular reference to figures 1, 2, 4, 5, the pocket 1 is illustrated in a non-assembled configuration, while with reference to figures 3, 6 the pocket is illustrated in an assembled configuration.

[0016] In both configurations, said pocket 1 is defined by an upper edge 2, a lower edge 3 and a first and a second lateral edge 4, 5.

[0017] The above-cited edges 2, 3, 4, 5 define a perimeter profile P of the pocket 1 which is closed when the pocket 1 is in the assembled configuration.

[0018] The upper edge 2 is opposite the lower edge 3.

[0019] The upper edge 2 exhibits, in the non-assembled configuration of the pocket 1, a linear extension along an axis X-X.

[0020] On the contrary, the upper edge 2 exhibits, in the assembled configuration of the pocket 1, an arched extension along an arc K-K.

[0021] The lower edge 3 exhibits, in both configurations taken on by the pocket 1, a broken-lined progression, defined by two tracts converging in a point, assuming a V-shape.

[0022] The two lateral edges 4 and 5 are opposite one another and interposed between the upper edge 1 and the lower edge 3 in order to connect them together.

[0023] In the non-assembled configuration the first and second lateral edges 4, 5 are not parallel to one another.

[0024] More precisely, in the non-assembled configuration, the second lateral edge 5 exhibits a vertical development, while in the first lateral edge 4 it exhibits a development, starting from the lower edge 3, in a distancing direction with respect to the second lateral edge 5.

[0025] In other words, the first lateral edge 4, starting from the lower edge 3, extends towards the upper edge 2 while diverging from the second lateral edge 5.

[0026] In the assembled configuration the first and second lateral edges 4, 5 take on a parallel configuration as is visible in the accompanying figures 3, 6. The pocket 1, in the non-assembled configuration, is defined by a first portion 6 and a second portion 7.

[0027] As can be seen in figures 2, 4 the first and second portion 6, 7 are sourced from two separate pieces of cloth.

[0028] It is clear that without forsaking the ambit of protection of the present invention, the first and second portion 6, 7 can be joined to one another in a section and separate in the other section, thus realising the non-assembled and assembled configurations dealt with during the course of the description.

[0029] Said first and second portions 6, 7 respectively comprise a first edge 8 and a second edge 9, facing one another.

[0030] Said edges 8, 9 are complementarily shaped to one another.

[0031] The first edge 8 comprises a first terminal tract 8a, a second terminal tract 8b and a median tract 8c located between and conjoining the terminal tracts 8a, 8b.

[0032] Likewise the second edge 9 too comprises a first terminal tract 9a, a second terminal tract 9b and a median tract 9c located between and conjoining the terminal tracts 9a, 9b.

[0033] To complete the pocket 1 there is a seam 10, defining an assembled configuration of the pocket, arranged along the first edge 8 and the second edge 9.

[0034] Said assembled configuration of the pocket can be obtained, without forsaking the ambit of protection of the present invention, with any other type of connection such as for example gluing, Velcro, or a zip.

[0035] The complementary shaping of the first and second edge 8, 9 is such as to realise, during the lining-up of the two portions 6, 7, a particular condition, which will be explained in the following.

[0036] As can be seen in figure 2, the first portion 6 and the second portion 7 exhibit a flat development such that if the first edge 8 and the second edge 9 are arranged on a plane in reciprocal contact in at least a contact point 11, at least two terminal tracts 8a, 9a, each belonging to the respective edge 8, 9, are separated from one another in a separation zone 12 which broadens from said contact point 11 towards the lateral edge 4 of the pocket 1.

[0037] At the contact point 11 the distance d between the terminal tracts 8a, 9a is at a minimum, while at the lateral edge 4 the distance D between the terminal tracts 8a, 9a is at a maximum.

[0038] The minimum distance d at the contact point is about 0 mm.

[0039] The maximum distance D at the lateral edge 4 is comprised between 5mm and 40mm and is preferably 15mm.

[0040] As can be seen in figure 2, the configuration of the edges 8, 9 of the pocket 1 is such that when the contact point 11 has been realised, the first terminal tracts 8a, 9a diverge while the second terminal tracts 8b, 9b coincide.

[0041] In this particular configuration the development of the median tracts 8c, 9c is pointed.

[0042] The seam 10, at the separation zone 12, facilitates the joining of the first portion 6 to the second portion 7 by nearing the at least two terminal tracts of edge 8a, 9a such as to give the pocket a curved three-dimensional conformation.

[0043] More precisely, the seam 10 enhances the joining of the first portion 6 to the second portion 7 by a superposing of the edge 8 on the edge 9, at the contact point 11, and the nearing of the edge 8 to the edge 9, at the separation zone 12, in order to give a curved three-dimensional conformation.

[0044] The joining of the first portion 6 to the second portion 7, by means of the seam 10, produces a convex shape of the pocket 1, i.e. it exits from the plane on which it rests (which in the drawing of figure 3 is the plane of the sheet of paper).

[0045] With reference to the seam 10 realised at the separation zone 12 it is made by rotation, with respect to the contact point 11 of the first terminal tract 8a towards the second terminal tract 9a up to generating contact of the above-mentioned tracts.

[0046] The effect obtained by the seam 10 is visible in figure 3, in which the pocket 1 is illustrated in the assembled configuration, where the three-dimensional aspect of the pocket 1 can be seen, i.e. the concavity of the pocket projecting from the sheet.

[0047] With reference to the embodiment of figure 4, in which a second embodiment of the pocket 1 is illustrated, the conformation of the edges 8, 9 is such as to realise a more accentuated effect with respect to what can be obtained by the pocket in the first embodiment.

[0048] As can be seen in figure 5, the nearing of the edges 8, 9 generates a contact segment 13 in place of the contact point 11, and a first and a second separation zone 12, 12'.

[0049] Said contact segment 13 is obtained by reciprocal contact of the median tracts 8c, 9c which in this case take on a linear development.

[0050] Said contact segment 13 is defined by a first end 13a and a second end 13b. In other words, in the example of figure 4, the first and the second portion 6, 7 exhibit a flat extension, such that if the first edge 8 and the second edge 9 are arranged on a plane of reciprocal contact the contact occurs with the median tracts 8c, 9c of the edges.

[0051] The generation of the contact segment 13, by nearing the median tracts 8c, 9c, promotes a contextual appearance of a first separation portion 12 and a second separation portion 12'.

[0052] The first separation portion 12 is obtained by the flanking of the first terminal tracts 8a, 9a.

[0053] Said first separation portion 12 tends to broaden from the contact segment 13 towards the lateral edge 4.

[0054] In other words, at the contact segment 13, at the first end 13a, the distance d between the terminal tracts 8a, 9a is at a minimum, while at the lateral edge 4 the distance D between the terminal tracts 8a, 9a is at a maximum. Likewise the second separation portion 12' is obtained by flanking the second terminal tracts 8a, 9b.

[0055] Said second separation portion 12' tends to broaden from the contact segment 13 towards the lateral edge 5.

[0056] In other words, at the second end 13b of the contact segment 13, the distance d between the second terminal tracts 8b, 9b is at a minimum, while at the lateral edge 5 the distance D between the terminal tracts 8b, 9b is at a maximum.

[0057] In this case too, as mentioned above, the minimum distance d at the ends 13a, 13b of the contact segment 13 is 0 mm, while the maximum distance D at both lateral edges is comprised between 5mm and 40mm and is preferably 1.5mm.

[0058] The broadening of the first portion 12 is specular to the broadening of the second portion 12'.

[0059] More precisely, the broadening of the first portion 12 develops in the opposite direction to the development direction of the broadening of the second portion 12'.

[0060] In the configuration of figures 4-6, the seam 10 facilitates the joining of the first portion 6 to the second portion 7 by superposing of the median tracts 8c and 9c and the nearing of the first terminal tracts 8a, 9a and the second terminal tracts 8b, 9b, at the respective first and second separation portion 12, 12'.

[0061] With particular reference to the nearing of the first and second terminal tracts 8a, 8b ,9a, 9b during the realisation of the seam 10, the first terminal tract 8a of the first edge 8 is rotated, with respect to the first end 13a of the contact segment 13, towards the first terminal tract 9a or the second edge 9, up to generating contact between the above-mentioned tracts, and the second terminal tract 8b of the first edge 8 is rotated with respect to the second end 13b of the contact segment 13 towards the second terminal tract 9b of the second edge 9 up to generating contact of the above-mentioned tracts.

[0062] In this case too, the joining of the first portion 6 to the second portion 7, by means of the seam 10, causes a convex shape of the pocket 1, i.e. exiting from the plane on which it rests (which in the drawing of figure 6 is the plane of the sheet of paper).

[0063] The method for realising the pocket, realised according to the first embodiment, comprises following steps:

• nearing the first portion 6 to the second portion 7, placing the first edge 8 in contact with the second edge 9 at least at a contact point 11 and generating a separation zone 12, between the first edge 8 and the second edge 9 at the respective first terminal tracts 8a, 9a, which widens from the point of contact 11 towards the lateral edge 4 of the pocket 1;
• connecting the first portion 6 to the second portion 7, at the respective edges 8, 9, facilitating a connection extending between the lateral edges 4, 5, superposing the first edge 8 on the second edge 9 at the contact point 11, and nearing the first edge 8 to the second edge 9, at the separation zone 12. The connecting step is carried out by preferably making a seam 10.

[0064] The seam 10 is realised by using the superposing of the edges 8, 9, obtained by nearing the edges 8, 9 in the at least a contact point 11, and by means of the nearing of the first terminal tracts 8a, 9a and sewing them in contact with one another.

[0065] With particular reference to the seam 10 realised at the terminal tracts 8a, 9a, the seam 10 is sewn by nearing the edges obtained by rotating the first edge 8 towards the second edge 9 with respect to the contact point 11.

[0066] In other words the operator performs a partial sewing at the contact point 11 and thereafter finishes the sewing operation at the separation zone 12. As can be seen in figures 2 and 3, the partial sewing is done starting from the second lateral edge 5 up to reaching the contact point 11.

[0067] The following sewing, to complete the seam 10, is done starting from the contact point 11 towards the first lateral edge 4 nearing progressively, by a rotation of the first terminal tract 8a towards the second terminal tract 9a, the edge 8 to the edge 9 up to placing them in contact with one another.

[0068] In the case of the second embodiment of the pocket 1, illustrated in figures 4-6, the method is different from the one described herein above exclusively because of the different realisation of the connecting step.

[0069] The nearing of the edges 8, 9 is done by arranging the median tracts 8c, 9c in contact with one another, thus defining a contact segment 13.

[0070] The conformation of the edges 8, 9 is such as to generate a first separation portion 12, upstream of the contact segment 13, and a second separation portion 12', downstream of the contact segment 13.

[0071] The step of connecting, in the case of application of the seam 10, is done by sub-dividing the seam 10 first at the median tracts 8a, 9c, superposed on one another such as to define the contact segment 13, then by nearing the first terminal tracts 8a, 9a and the second terminal tracts 8b, 9b up to sewing them in contact with one another.

[0072] During the sewing of the separation portions 12, 12' a first tract of sewing is done starting from the first end 13a towards the first lateral edge 4, progressively nearing, by means of rotation, the first terminal tract 8a towards the second terminal tract 9a, then a second sewing tract from the second end 13b towards the second lateral edge 5, progressively nearing, by rotation, the first terminal tract 8b towards the second terminal tract 9b. The rotation of the first and the second terminal tracts 8a, 8b belonging to the first portion 6, with respect to the relative ends 13a, 13b of the contact segment 13, realises the contact with the respective terminal tracts 9a, 9b of the second portion 7.

[0073] With reference to possible articles of clothing provided with the pocket of figures 1-6, figure 7 illustrates a rear portion or a leg of a pair of trousers 14.

[0074] The trousers 14 comprise a leg region 15 and a seat region 16, destined to be superposed on a buttock of a person wearing the trousers.

[0075] The pocket is sewn at the seat region 16, denoted in figure 7 with a broken and dotted line.

[0076] The seat region 16 is provided with a cut 18 defined by an upper flap 19 and a lower flap 20.

[0077] Starting from a vertex 21, located about in the centre of the seat region 16, the upper flap 19 and the lower flap 20 diverge from one another.

[0078] When the trousers 14 are realised, the upper flap 19 is sewn by superposing on the lower flap 20, realising a second seam 22.

[0079] Said seam is realised such as to generate a convexity on the seat region 16 in order to enable the trousers to adhere better to the buttock of the person wearing them.

[0080] During application of the pocket 1 onto the seat region 16 of the trousers 14 particular attention is paid to superposing the seam 10 on the second seam 22 such that the first seam 10 creates a prolongation of the second, as illustrated in figure 9.

[0081] In this way the superposing of the two seams, 10, 22, enables the convexity of the seat region 16 of the trousers 14 to be enhanced.

[0082] A further article of clothing provided with the pocket of figures 1-6 is a shirt 23, illustrated in figures 10-11.

[0083] Said shirt 23 superiorly exhibits a neck region 24 and a thorax region 25 connected inferiorly to the neck region 24 at a joining line 31.

[0084] At the thorax region 25 an opening 26 is afforded, exhibiting a vertex 27 from which two sides 28, 29 branch.

[0085] Said sides 28, 29 respectively exhibit a first portion 28a and a second portion 29a, diverging from one another, starting from the vertex 27, and continuing with a third portion 28b and a fourth portion 29b, converging towards one another.

[0086] Said sides 28, 29 are joined to one another such as to realise a pence 30 developing along the thorax region 25 from the base thereof up to reaching the top thereof.

[0087] The pocket 1 is located below the joining line 31 and superposed on the pence 30; the pocket 1 is located at the vertex. In figure 10 the pocket 1 is represented by a broken dotted line and sewn to the shirt 23 in figure 11. The pocket 1 and the method for realising thereof provide important advantages in the clothing sector.

[0088] From a point of view of comfort, the article, whether trousers 14 or a shirt 23, provided with the pocket 1 reduces the sensations of crushing localised in the curved surfaces of the user i.e. at the buttocks and breasts.

[0089] In addition, from an aesthetic point of view, the article tends to accentuate curvaceousness, while affording the body of the person wearing it an enhanced wearability.

13. The method of claim 12, characterised in that the connection, during nearing of the first edge (8) to the second edge (9) is realised by rotation of the first terminal tract (8a) of the first edge (8) towards the first terminal tract (9a) of the second edge (9) with respect to the first end (13a) and by rotation of the second terminal tract (8b) of the first edge (8) towards the second terminal tract (9b) of the second edge (9) withrespect to the second end (13b) up to generating contact, at the separation zones (12, 12') of the terminal tracts.

14. Trousers comprising a leg region (15), a seat region (16) and at least a pocket (1) of one of claims from 1 to 8, the pocket (1) being applied to the seat region (16) of the trousers (14), such as to be superposed, in use, on a buttock region of a person wearing the trousers.

15. The trousers of claim 14, characterised in that the seat region (16) comprises a cut, defined by a vertex (21), a lower flap (19) and an upper flap (20); the flaps (19, 20), which are reciprocally divergent starting from the vertex (21), being connected, by superposing of the upper flap (19) on the lower flap (20), by means of a second sewn seam (22).

16. The trousers of claim 15, characterised in that the pocket (1) is applied to the seat region (16), superposing the seam (10) on the second seam (22); the seam (10) defining an ideal extension of the second seam (22).

17. A shirt, comprising a neck region (24), a thorax region (25) and a pocket (1) as in one of claims from 1 to 8, the pocket (1) being applied such as to be superposed in use on a breast region of a person wearing the shirt.
